Nothing You Can Do… But Christ Has Done It All

The Philippian jailer’s cry in Acts 16:30 still echoes through the centuries:

“Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”

It is the greatest question a soul can ever ask. The answer from Paul and Silas was clear and direct:

“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.” (Acts 16:31)

So many seek to “do something” to earn salvation—whether through religion, good works, or sacrifice. Yet the gospel proclaims that all the doing has already been done by Christ at the cross. He suffered for sins, offered Himself as the sacrifice, and took the sinner’s place as substitute.

Salvation is not about what we can do—it is about trusting what Christ has already accomplished.
